Party girl Paris Hilton is a virus
Well, a computer virus that is!
IT security and control firm Sophos is urging computer users once again to patch against a critical bug in how Microsoft Windows handles animated cursors (ANI files) as hackers exploit the problem by sending out emails related to professional party girl Paris Hilton and hardcore actress Jenna Jameson.
The spammed email messages have subject lines such as “Hot pictures of paris hilton nude” and contain an embedded image not of the celebrity hotel heiress but of pornographic actress Jenna Jameson. When clicked on, the image links to a website containing the malicious Iffy-B Trojan horse. The Trojan horse in turn points to another piece of malware which tries to exploit the Microsoft vulnerability.
Be careful the next time you receive an email about Paris Hilton’s nude pictures then!
